ChipGroup

Introduction

The ChipGroup components render a set of chips as either a single-selection group (MtChipRadioGroup) or a multiple-selection group (MtChipCheckboxGroup). They share the same underlying Mantine Chip.Group and are useful for filters, tags, or compact option lists.

It is included within the following NPM package: @react-form-builder/components-mantine.

Component variants

Differences between variants

ComponentSelection typeValue shapeTypical use case
MtChipRadioGroupSingle selectionstringPick one option from a chip list
MtChipCheckboxGroupMultiple selectionstring[]Select multiple chips (filters, tags)

MtChipRadioGroup

Chip-based radio group that enforces a single selected value. It behaves similarly to a classic radio group but uses chips as the interactive elements.

MtChipCheckboxGroup

Chip-based checkbox group that lets the user select any subset of chips. It is best suited for filters and tag-style multi-select.
